His Lordship in presenting a si milar Petition from the town of Banff, observed that, having heard of a Petition et a contrary tendency being presented in the other House of Parliament, he wrote to a friend to inquire into the particulars respecting it, and he ascertained fro a respect able source, that the Petition was never heard of by the people of Banff until' it had been presented in the House of Commons. Many of the names signed to that Petition were not inhabitants of that town, but the Petition which his Lordship was then about to present was signed by nine-tenths of the Inhabitants of Banff.

MPaliTAN'r IMPROVEIVIEN'r in PEN , ICNWES.—The usual manner of manufacturing Pen. knife Blades has long been a subject of complaint. The edge is made too steep and the angle too obtuse; the consequence-is that the edge in cutting is sometimes unmanageable and driven into the quill nearly across; This - inconvenienee almost every person in the habit of making pens has frequently experienced. To obviate this entirely, 'l'. CLARK, of Fatter 'Ch.nge, has introduced a Penknife Blade, manufactured entirely on a new. principle; the line of the e dge being parallel with the side of the blade forms a very acute angle : the instrument. therefore„ even in inexperienced hands, may be easily 'governed ; ro cut ting but what is intended can take place, and the Pen is fortned with the greatest nicety and the utmost facility. The blade of this Penknife is beautiful in workmanship, and can be recom mended 'with confidence, as superior to 'any article previously introduced into this branch of Cutlery. Also can be used with the right or left hand.—The blades are made from refitted silver steel.

The Loin CHIEF JUSTICE intimated .that in pursuance of his Majesty's warrant to that effect, two of his Learned Brethren would sit from the 9th to the 13th . of May, in the Bail Court, at Westminster, for the dispatch of such business as may be in ar rear at the close of the Term, and that his Lordship himself, will sit at Nisi Prius in the Court of King's Bench, during the above period. At a trial that took ylace at the late Cork Assizes, practising Attorney, in the County Court, Mr. who is most frequently engaged in the defence of prisoners, hap pened in this case to be employed for the prosecution; and, to apprise the Court of his not being on his usual occupation, the defence, addressed it thus :—" My Lord, in this caso,l am en gaged for the Crown;" to which Mr. O'C., who was employed for the prisoner, and could not let this happy opportunity, as he thought it, pass without playing on the words, _said to Mr. 11., in a waggish strain, " I dare say for half-a-crown it is said, that Mr. 11. immediately replied, " Oh. couusellor, I am no advocate for, divided allegiance." SAGACITY OF A HORSE.-- .A marked instance of sagacity was displayed by a horse brought about six weeks ago to the smithy of Mr. Seton, at Loch-lane, near Crieff, a person held in high estimation for his skill in farriery. At this time the poor animal seemed to labour under severe colic, but the man skilled in horse-flesh set so actively about his business, that the horse Was soon sent home completely relieved from his complaints. Some few weeks after, it was again remarked that the poor horse la boured under a fresh attack of his old complaint, but as it was not convenient to remove him to the smithy, he was allowed to re main in the stable. In the morning, however, be by some means disengaged his neck from the collar which fastened him in the stable, and set off for his old friend the smith, at Loch-lane, a dis tance of nearly two milts:. Being rather early fur his host, he caused the door of the innithy to fly open, and took his.station ex actly in the same spot. wherehe formerly stood, and there waited patiently for his physician. The Smith in due time made his ap pearance, and soon percell'ed that his patient was enduring all the gripes and agonies of coliti, and accordingly once more ad ministered to his relief. The owner had scarce time to extend his search the length, of, the smithy, when he found his steed safe andsound,,readY to carry him hotne..—t Stirling Journal. A BILL For consolidating the Trusts of the several Turnpike Roads in th e ne i g hb o U r h oo d o f the Metropolis, North of the River. Thames. (Semi, . 4. Above is a copy of the G title of a 4BVEL) Bill which is now pending before Parliament, brought into the House under the auspices of Lord Lowther, and framed upon the suggestions of a Committee. It has been our duty,• at different times, to animad vert, in strong terms, upon the present Turnpike System, conceiving in the first place that the system was bad, and feeling in the - second that the practice under it was worse. We therefore hail this. Bill with peculiar satisfaction ; and, although somewhat disappointed by a perusal - of its provisieins, we nevertheless entertain some well-grounded hopes that it will be productive of much good to the Public, notwithstanding it is not (to use a coachman's phrase) 44 bang up to the mark." After this little proem, we proceed to lay before our readers in . as brief a manner as possible the chief pro visions of thi s Bill, ,and we think that in employing our own expressions rather than the verbiage of the • statute itself, we shall ; whilst we. consult our own idle disposition, at the; same time best please them. The object of this Bill. then is to consolidate the trusts of the roads near the Metropolis, north of the Rivet Thames. The,roads thus brought within its ppera; tion are as follows:--- Kensington, • Brentford, • Isleworth, Uxbridge, Marylebone, Harrow, Kilburn, Highgate and Hampstead, and lastly, a new road at this moment forming, and leading from Camden Town to Holloway. • ..• Out of this lung list of roads, when consolidated and brought together under one trust, it was to be hoped, that a few of the multiplicity of 'gates where the toll is collected might have been g ot _ rid of. Indeed we always understood th a t it was the putting down of some dozen or two of these tricks upon travellers, that formed one at least of the great objects of the 'consoli dation, and the miseries of your dinner out in the winter, so pathetically bewailed by the John Bull newspaper towards the close of last year, would henceforth have ceased to exist, and one cause cursing and swearing withdrawn, to our great advan tage. In this; however, we are disappointed; The amount:of tolls will remain untouched, for although the Parliament in its wisdom has thought proper to confer the power of removing toll-gates on the Com missioners under the Act, it has at the same time given the power of retaining those already erected, and alas ! that of adding to . their number. In this respect, therefore, we fear the. public.., can expect but little, if any, - advantage ; they must be. content for a season longer to endure " the proud man's contumely" at the toll-gate, and continue to dispense their pence to these graceless rogues with what appetite they may. It is, however, a consolation to re fl e ct, th a t if we are t o p a y our money, the roads are likely to be improved by it, for an 'Shirking in this particular, we apprehend, cannot well be, when this Bill shall,become The Act, when passed, will have certain Commissioners, to be called 44 Parliamentary C o mmissioners," and certain others, to be called '44 Local Commissioners," the whole body being termed " The Commissioners of the Metropolis Turnpike Roads North of the Thames." We do not perceive that any provision is made for paying these Gentlemen salaries and we suppose our Readers will agr e e w i t h us i n thinking that this cir cumstance is a very agreeable omission, and altogether a good .44,pair off ' with - the clause for limiting the taking of tors at gates within a certain distance of one another. This diviiiou of the joint body into two parts, the one forming a. check upon the other, offers to the public a• little more than the usual security that the powers of the act will be used, and not abused, and the additional right conferred on the Justices of Peace of calling upon the Commissioners, by notice to. their Surveyor, to repair any roads which may need - it, seems at least a ready and expeditious mode of hinting to them this default, and causing its amendment with the least possible delay. This, at all events, is a ne cessary improvement upon the present system, which admits of great protraction in this respect, and compels travellers to journey over bad roads whilst the legal au- thorities are deciding whether they arc in repair or not; a fact they might more easily discover by just causing their carriages.to be drawn over the decayed part of the road in,question. In another instance too this Bill seems to be highly advantageous, we mean in placing a good check upon the jobbing propensities of loCal Commission ers , and ensuring the outlay of the money collected a t the toll gates in the most economi cal manner, and to the benefit of the turnpike roads. The clause too which directs the proceedings of the Commissioners to be reported annually to Parliament, is another benefit, as affording to the public authentic documents whence they may judge of the reason ableness of the tolls levied, and of the manner in which the powers of the act are executed. So beneficial, indeed, does the measure a pp ear , that we think we have reason to quarrel with my Lord Lowther for limiting its operations to the roads north of the 'Thames. For our parts we see no thing in the Surrey and Sussex Roads Commissioners which ought to save them from the same fate which awaits their brethren on the Middlesex side of the City Road, Stamford Hill, Old Street Road, Shoreditch, Bethnal Green, Hackney, Lea Bridge, Thames, and therefore these latter may have good cause of quarrel fo r the partiality which h a s th us been displayed towards those of the Surrey side. ,q uiet, and have the tin of paved streets, A clause a ll ows th e macadamizing and th e pav i ng o f stree ts alre a dy but th ose w h o love macadamized ; gular d es i re of hearing themselves speak in their own dining rooms, will we are sure determinedly oppose the return to that barbarous custom, and bold up their hands for the smooth faced, quiet, and easy roads of the great Scotch road maker. The re are however, a few objectionable clauses in this Bill, but as time for correction is even yet allowed, we con fess we hope they will not be permitted to pass un less altered or somewhat modified. When that is ac complished, the Bill shall have our Warmest support. ROMAN CATHOLIC PETITION. The Earl of CARNAR VON presented a Petition from the Ro man Catholics of the County of Wexford, praying for a repeal of the Penal Laws. JOINT-STOCK COMPANIES IN SCOTLAND. Lord MELVILLE rose for the purpose of withdrawing a Bill, which he had' broUght before the House, to enable Joint-Stock Companies in Scotland to sue and be • sued in the names of the respective officers. His Lordship's object was to bring in a Bill more applicable to the principle of one which had lately passed their Lordships' House, as now altered by the other House of Par liament. His Lordship then withdrew the first Bill, and gave notice of his intention to bring in the other Bill to=morrow, the provisions of which are not to extend to Banking Companies. The Earl of LAUDERDALE could not form any opinion as to the • shape in which the Bill should come up from the other House of Parliament, but he thought it singular that the same 'charity which was extended to other joint-stock Companies should notledealt out to banking establishments. It was as necessary that banks should be conducted by men of probity as any other establishinents. His Lordship could nut, therefore, see the jus tice of not makint , the Bill applicable to ull joint-stock e com panies._ Lord MELVILLE said Ms object was to place joint-stock com panies in Scotland on the same footing with those of England and Ireland, but did not'mean, by his Bill, to interfere with banking establishments, which would be the subject of a separate enact ment. The Bill which he intended to . bring in would leave them as they were, and they could sair no inconvenience by it. ALIEN ACT. The Earl of DARNLEY said that it was a matter of notoriety that a Minister of the Crown had declared in another place that there was no intention, on the part of his Majesty's Ministers, to renew the Alien Act, and it would be a matter of satisfaction to their Lordships to hear a similar declaration from the Noble Earl at the head of the Treasury. His Lordship congratulated the "House on the early termination of an Act so disgraceful and so useless turtle Alien Act. • The Earl of LIVERPOOL begged to remind the Noble :erl that it was not withal for oOvernment to make any announcement respecting the Bill which was about to expire, except when some other measure connected with it WIIB intended to be proposed to Parliament. It way true that a Night Ilona Friend of his had, on bringing in a Bill for Registering Foreigners, informed the /louse of Commons that there was no intention on the part of hie Ma. jetty's Ministers, of applying to Parliament to renew the Alien Act. • LOCAL PAYMENTS. BILL. The Marquis of LANSDOWN moved their Lordships to rea. • solve into a — Committee upon the Bill to enforce the payment of notes . wher&er they might be istnied. • • The Earl of LIVERPOOL agreed entirely with the principle of the .Bill; which had been brought in by the Noble Mar quis; because he thought it desirable that the banks should pay their notes • not only where they were issued, but at all their branches ; but he had heard of so many objections made to "the' Bill, and as his Lordship believed there was some diffi culties in the way of attaining the desired object, he would submit to the consideration of the Noble Marquis, whether it would be right to legislate upon the subject when the Com mittee had Intsisures before them upon which no report had as yet been made. He did not look forward with any sanguine hope of coming iu one Session to a final or satisfactory conclusion respect.. ing those important measures. It would •therefore, in his opinion be better to reserve the whole subject for another Session. The Bill which had passed their Lordships was undergoing connidera.: ble alterations in the other House. of Parliament, where it was then under discussion, and even within a short period there was strong proof in Ireland of the 'advantages arising out of the ;sta.; blishment of Joint-stock Banking Companies. In that rountry there was scarcely a bank but those of the Bank of Ireland and Joint-stock Banks and their branches, all of which were formed . . •••• tinder Acts of Parliament; and in this . country a great many bankers had expressed their willingness to be formed into► Joint stock Companies. He did not think it prudent to go farther un til the Bill which was before the other house of Parliament should be passed, and after the passing of that measure there would be a good opportunity during the recess of making an experiment; and of ascertaining its efficacy. He hoped he would not be misunder. , stood as objecting to the principle of the Bill which was thou be fore their Lordships, and if the Noble Marquis would consent to its postponement, he hoped no such opinion would go abroad. His object was to give the subject full consideration, and not to come to any conclusion without sufficient information and deliberation; and he also wished to say that he had no reason to alter the opi nion which he had already declared on the subject. The Noble Earl than moved that the Bill be committed that day three months. , The Earl of LAUDERDALE, after repeating the opinion which he had already taproo t d on the introduction of the Bill, respect ing its tendency to injure all Banking establishments, said that the Provincial Banks in Ireland were placed in a very hard situation. The Bank of Ireland, and its branches, issued notes which were payable only in Dublin ; whilst the Provincial Banks paid their notes wherever they were issued. They were thus turned into mere engines for supplying the Bank of Ireland with gold ; and he should be happy if some measure could be sadopted for their The Earl of LIMERICK expressed his tatisfaitiou at the pro bability that the measure could not be carried into effect during the present Session. Should such a mischievous measure be again proposed next year, he hoped that it would be resisted 'and put down. He returned his sincere thanks to the Pcen of Scotland, for the energy and unanimity which they had displayed on this occasion ; and was happy, as an Irishman, to join the cordon aanftnirc which they had drawn before both countries. He should also wish that Some measure were passed, during the present Session, fur the protection of the Provincial Banks in Ireland. The Marquis of LANSDOWN did net intend, on that ocea. Rion, to offer any observations on the propriety of extinguishing in Scotland and Ireland all notes below AL, for 00 i t th mnation had yet been laid before their ,I.ordshipa by their Committ ee; nor did be think that Committee yet ripe to make any fonammica. tion. It was his intention, in the CoMthittee, to h ave propoaed, that the wads in the Bill, " at present,' should b e changed " till the Mouth of October next," the time W h en t h e linkers renew their licenses. After the full admissio n o f t h e N o b le Earl of the importance and tistic.e of the principle of the measure, though he thought that difficulties were new in the way of carrying it into execution, he could not obstinately persist in forcing fonvard the Bill, particularly as he was assured, that by postponing it till the next Session, he might then have the powerful assistance o f the No.. ble Earl in carrying it into effect. Ile looked on the principle of the measure as essential to having the circulation of the country in a spinet state. It was not enough that paper should be con. , vertible into coin; to make , that conversion of any consequence 9. the holder Of the note must have the power of effecting it speedily. If Banks were allowed to name notes, .which they would pay only at remote places, an almost unlimited ACOF,.'" would be given to their speculation ; and a currency the moat vicious and dangerous--the most liable to fluctuations which • could be conceived , .-would overflow the country. He agreed entirely with the Noble Earl, that it was cusential to a sound paper currency, that gold should be in circulation with it ; and it was not possible to prepare the way for withdrawing the small Notes, till some gold had been vut into circulation. H. Notes were not made payable where issued, it would be hopes- Bible to get any sovereigns into circulation; and the measure which the Noble Earl contemplated, of withdrawing the small Notes from Scotland and Ireland, could not be carried into ef fect. He would not repeat what the Noble Earl had stated, of the conflict between the two Banks; but he believed he wee quite correct, that the Bank of Ireland,, in the exercise of is rights, had made all its Notes payable only in Dublin , and ()valet! the Provincial Bank to tied gold for it; but be must call their Lordships' attention to Whet Would be the condition of Ireland, if left exposed to the dangers of fluctuation in its currency. Un der the present state of the laW, the Bank of Ireland possessed the privilege of doing what it had done, and the other Bank might be tempted to do something similar. It might hape pea that the Bank of Ireland should completely extinguish its rival the Provincial Batik, and it had only established Branch Banks for this very purpose. If it succeeded its its object, it would have a monopoly of ell the paper currency of Ireland ; and, reverting to its old. system, it might withdraw its Branch Establishments, and Ireland would then be left almost des titute of any circulating medium, and the whole country would be at the mercy of the Bank of !ravel. Their Lord ships might put the Supposition the other way, and imagine the Provincial Bank altering, as it was well entitled to alter, its system, and making its Notes only payable at Limerick, or some remote place like Kinsale, or Donegal, or even any place in England, then the whole circulation of Ireland would consist of paper payable in gold only in Dublin, or some re' mote spot in England. Before sitting down he would notice the circumstance which he had almost forgotten, of the danger England would incur, if no manure were brought forward this• Session relative to Scotland, at least in the northern counties---of being overrun with Scotch Bunk Notes. The active agents of those Banks in the towns of the North of England, would endeavour to force those notes into circulation, and England would be deprived of all the benefits intended to be conferred on her by the late measures. Those notes might be made payable only in Edinburgh, and the object the Noble Earl had in view in intro- , ducing the late measures, might be entirely detiuted. The Noble Marquees concluded by Raying, that he was ready to acquiesce in the suggestion of the Noble Earl, hoping that he might, at a future time, have his powerful support. He should, therefore, beg leave to move that'their Lordships resolve themselves into a Committee on the Bill on that clay three months. The Earl of ROSSLYN agreed in the viewi of the Noble Mar quani as to the conduct of the two Banks in Ireland ; but he dif fered from him as to his apprehension* that the North of England would be inundated by Scotch Bank None. Before 1797, there were many small notes in circulation in Scotland, but they never passed the borders. If they hail not made en irruption then into England, there was still lesi f danger now, and be thought the fears of his Noble Friend, on this head, quite groundless: The Earl of LIVERPOOL disagreed with the Noble Mar quess as to the danger of Scotch Small notes coming into eircula= tion in this conutry. In 1797 there was no such danger, since, if he might so express it, the taste of the people here was in favour of a metallio - Curreney. In every view of the subject he thought the consideration o f this Bill ought. to be postponed ; for till the whole matter could fairly be examined, Parliament could hardly be ripe to legislate upon it. The .Earl of LAUDERDALE thought there Was little danger of the introduction of Scotch paper into this country. As a proof of this he might mention a subject with which the Noble Lord on the Woolsack was doubtless well acquainted ; he meant what was commonly called the Black Job.—(A laugh.). _l n that transaction Scotch notes were refused to pas* at Newcastle; and the celebrated John Hay was obliged to indorse them as his private hills of exchange, before he could use them to pay for the horses purchased there. Thittliet eliewed that without the con sent of the people thentselVes, Scotch -notes could ' , not be intro duced. ' • • The LORD CHANCELLOR eould not but wonder at the Noble Earle insinuation of his acquaintance frith 'the Black Job. of which he believed he knew no ttior than did . the Noble Earl himielf.—(A laugh. )—With . respect to the danger' of Scotch netts passing the border, he 'certainly did think the Hotise would find Nome difficulty in legislating on that subject, seeing .that the note, were of a Scotch nature, it would be almost impossible to prevent them from travelling South.—(A loud laugh.) After a few words from the Earle of LIMERICK and CAR NARVON, the motion was agreed to.: THE EAST-INDIA JURY BILL The Marquess of LANSDOWN expressed his approbation of the principle of this Bill, which, he said, had its origin in the system pursued some years' since in Sierra Leone, by Sir Alexan der Johnson, the Chief Justice of that Colony. • The course pur sued by that enlightened Judge was afterwards Brought into opt , ration in Ceylon, where it had ultimately prodnceil the Abolition of Slavery. The Bill had hie most cordial support...--The Bill was read a third time. The Bill for Amending the practice of Write of Mandamus iu Creland was also read a third time and paaseti. 'the other Bills went through their respective stages, and the Ramie adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS: Several Bills were forwarded u stage. NEW CORN EXCHANGE Sir.
